The Early Childhood Multidisciplinary Assessment Clinic
This is a highly specialised clinic for children ages 2 to 5 carried by a Developmental Paediatrician and an allied health practitioner. The aim of the clinic is to understand your child's unique developmental profile. We achieve this by one of our allied health team members completing a Griffiths III developmental assessment which evaluates a child's development in a play based manner whilst our paediatrician maps your child's developmental trajectory with an interview with you and information provided by their early educators and therapists. In this comprehensive process we are able to provide diagnostic clarification regarding Autism, intellectual functioning and developmental delays. We strive to also identify and support any subclinical neurodivergent traits and strengths that may be present in your child. This appointment takes 2 to 3 hours which includes administration of the Griffiths, consultation with the paediatrician and a plan to help support your child's development and behaviour.
